Harlam stay

Host was great, they were quickly responsive when we were accidentally locked out. Location is super close to a train and the local food scene and hospitality were great. The place was good for sleeping and prepping for days out.

Pros: Excellent location in Harlem which is 2 blocks from subway and good restaurants. Instructions to enter the unit was easy to follow. The unit is as clean as it can be for a brownstone. We used the stove often to cook. Cons: The access is under the stoop stairs of a brownstone. The unit is at the back of the brownstone and has very little natural light with no views because it is on the ground floor. The second bedroom is in the sub basement with zero natural light. Very little air circulation.

Great Stay

Stayed here with a group of 6 adults and we were very comfortable - apartment is large, the neighborhood is great, and you are just a few short moments from the subway or the bus. Will be saving this listing for future trips!

The house was super clean when we arrived. The instructions for check-in and check-out were clear and easy to follow. The access to the unit is easy for people with big luggages but accessing the downstair area could be difficult since the staircase is quite steep. The place is super close to a lot of public transportations and supermarkets. Overall, a really nice, spacious and good location for a stay!

Charming Stay in Harlem

This Harlem brownstone was perfect home base for our family of 5 during our NYC stay. Easy access to MTA, local stores, and businesses. Check out Harlem Biscuit Company around the corner! And Proof Coffee Roasters, great cold brew. Located on a quiet street and plenty of sleeping space and room to spread out for our tweens/teens. Communication with the host was easy and responsive.

Brownstone in Harlem

Communication with property owner was great! The property itself was not as clean as I had hoped. It had plenty of space for us to spread out as a family of 5. I would suggest uodating the place because it really is a nice, historic property.

Overall lovely

Tyson was quick to respond and super helpful. I was unclear that it was a lower level of the brownstone, which was a touch disappointing, but it was still a brownstone in NYC so we were grateful! The lack of trash can in the bathroom, the microwave not working and the limited about of sleeping pillows were a bit disappointing. However, we made it work and we did enjoy our stay. The kids loved the big coach and it was a great location.

Host was very responsive. When we arrived at the property the code for the lock wasn't working (probably my mistake) and they were immediately able to reset it and we got in. The place was clean and comfortable and we had plenty of room for our family of four. There isn't a ton of storage space for clothes (no drawers) but that wasn't really a problem. The small kitchen was decently stocked but there were only two coffee cups and two martini glasses (which we used as wine glasses). There were plenty of plates, bowls, water cups, etc.I wouldn't mind staying here again however since most of the the stuff we did in the city was further South (Statue of Liberty, Broadway shows, Times Square, etc) we did have to plan on the extra 30 minutes of commuting time. If you are seeing stuff around Harlem (Hamilton Grange was well worth the visit) or the surrounding area, this place is fantastic. The closest subway stop is only about a 10 min walk away.The area was fine. There is a grocery store that's about a 15 minute walk away and lots of delis, restaurants and stuff all within a short walk. During the day, there was always people out and about talking, laughing and hanging out. At night it was always very quiet.

Harlem USA!

Years ago, I lived in NYC and had a garden apartment in another part of Harlem, and I am always curious about how people customize or update them. This apartment was a thoughtful and clever use of the space! Rare two-level unit and the extra half bath on the spacious lower level is genius. The orientation of the kitchen upstairs makes great use of the space. Updated appliances throughout. You really have to be familiar with NYC Brownstones to appreciate the host's design approach. The only thing I'd add is a ceiling fan upstairs and perhaps a modest wardrobe with drawers downstairs. Not a deal-breaker, however.Located close to everything, and the block itself is gorgeous. This will be our go-to spot whenever visiting. The host kindly and effortlessly helped us navigate an access issue that was our fault. Thanks for a great product.

I have been staying at VRBOs for over ten years and I have never had a worse experience. Our stay at this property was very disappointing. The host charged us an unexpected additional fee for an extra guest even though I had clearly informed him ahead of time. When I tried to discuss it, he threatened to lock us out with all of our belongings inside if we didn’t immediately pay, which was extremely stressful and unprofessional.Even more concerning, he seemed to be monitoring us through cameras and knew when we were not at the apartment, which felt invasive and unsettling.The apartment itself was also dirty and run down, definitely not as described or pictured in the listing. I would not recommend this property or host to anyone.
